Abstract(s)
Os avanços tecnológicos na medicina são permanentes e apresentam um cenário
de desenvolvimento muito encorajador a vários níveis, tais como tratamentos,
equipamentos, medicamentos, vacinas ou segurança hospitalar.
As telecomunicações e, em particular, as redes 5G acompanham esta evolução e
têm permitido avanços consideráveis ao nível da velocidade, latência e cobertura. A
tecnologia da rede 5G é considerada como uma das tecnologias impulsionadoras de
diversas mudanças na sociedade. Entre os múltiplos usos que esta oferece, está a
Telecirurgia.
Em situações em que o paciente precisa de uma cirurgia especializada, mas não
existem condições para que este seja transportado até ao local onde possa ser efetuada a
intervenção cirúrgica, a Telecirurgia possibilita-lhe o acesso ao procedimento, com a
velocidade e a segurança que a tecnologia da rede 5G disponibiliza.
Devido à condição geográfica insular da Região Autónoma dos Açores, este
estudo poderá ser de enorme importância para quebrar esta condição que se apresenta
como uma barreira no campo da saúde.
Neste contexto, este trabalho tem como principal objetivo estudar a viabilidade da
implementação de um serviço de Telecirurgia na Região Autónoma dos Açores suportada
pela rede 5G.
Para o efeito, será utilizada a metodologia Survey, com recurso a um inquérito por
entrevista, focado nas áreas científicas de medicina e de engenharia, para apoiar as
questões de investigação.
Após realizar as entrevistas, foi feita uma análise qualitativa de dados com recurso
ao software "QSR NVivo" e apresentado um conjunto de conclusões, limitações e
considerações futuras.
Technological advances in medicine are permanent and present a very encouraging development scenario at various levels, such as treatments, equipment, medicines, vaccines or hospital safety. Telecommunications and, in particular, 5G networks follow this development and have made considerable strides in speed, latency and coverage. 5G network technology is considered one of the driving forces behind various societal changes. Among the multiple uses, it offers is Telesurgery. In situations where the patient needs specialized surgery, but there are no conditions for it to be transported to where surgical intervention can be performed, Telesurgery allows him access to the procedure with the speed and safety that 5G network technology provides. Due to the insular geographical condition of the Autonomous Region of the Azores, this study may be of great importance in breaking this condition, which presents itself as a barrier in health. In this context, this work has as its main objective to present a proposal for guidance for implementing a Telesurgery service in the Autonomous Region of the Azores, supported by the 5G network. In this context, the main objective of this work is to study the feasibility of implementing a Tele-Surgery service in the Autonomous Region of the Azores supported by the 5G network. For this purpose, the Survey methodology will be used, using a survey, with an interview focused on the scientific areas of medicine and engineering to support the research questions. After conducting the interviews, qualitative data analysis was performed using the "QSR NVivo" software and a set of conclusions, limitations and future considerations were presented.
